Possibly the least essential of the Bud Freeman Classics discs as there's some tom-foolery here (making fun of modern jazz in the high falutin' accent that he liked to project) and a lot of sides with a female singing group that aren't the cat's meow. But still. . . a fun listen for a Friday morning.

The Tubby Hayes Orchestra

Reasonable me would not have purchased a copy of this record as it was available from my streaming service.  Reasonable me would not be listening to this now.

The Board of Directors: Count Basie & The Mills Brothers

After the listen: This is truly a wonder album.

One of my favorite albums of Brazilian jazz.

Jovino Santos Neto Quinteto "Por Causa de Voce"

The amazing compositions of Antonio Carlos Jobim played by a fantastic band and recorded with precision adding up to a wonderful listen.
